A Vedic Concordance c4.s4.6

- **Language:** English

### [c4.s4.6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.bloomfield-1906.c4.s4.6)

The Concordance rarely reports variants registered in the critical apparatus of a given edited text.—The critical apparatus of Vedic texts contains in the main worthless readings, due to all kinds of defects of tradition.¹ To have incorporated these readings into the Concordance would have swelled its bulk inordinately, and have been a task upon the whole no less futile than difficult.
